Acute Potential Health Effects:
Special Remarks on other
Skin: Causes skin irritation and possible burns, especially if skin is wet or moist.
Toxic Effects on Humans
Eyes: Causes eye irritation and possible burns. May cause chemical conjunctivitis and corneal damage.
Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed. Causes digestive (gastrointestinal) tract irritation and burns. May cause severe and
permanent damage to the digestive. Ingestion of large amounts may cause salivation, thirst, nausea, vomiting,
hypermotility, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. May affect behavior/central nervous system/nervous system (headache,
nervousness, dizziness, seizures, convulsions, tremor, muscle weakness, somnolence), respiration (respiratory
depression, dyspnea), cardiovascular system (weak pulse, hypotension, dysrhythmias, cardiac arrest), liver, urinary
system (polyuria, polydypsia), liver (hepatic enzymes increased, jaundice), brain, metabolism (loss of appetite,
hypcalcemia, hyperkalemia, hypomagnesia, ), teeth, bones, and blood (changes in red and white blood cell count,
interference in blood coagulation) .
Inhalation: Causes irritation and chemical burns of the respiratory tract with coughing, breathing difficulty and
possibly nasal septum perforation and coma. May affect bones.
Chronic Potential Heath Effects:
Chronic ingestion may cause fluorosis. Effects of fluorisis may include joint pain, weakness, limited joint mobility,
brittle bones, ossifications on x-ray, thickening of long bone cortices, calcificaiton of ligaments, osteomalacia,
osteosclerosis (skeletal (bone and teeth) abnormalties) and mottled tooth enamel. Other symptoms may include
anemia, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or constipation, kidney damage and weight loss/anorexia.
Chronic inhalation may cause bronchitis to develop with cough, phlegm, and/or shortness of breath.
